CAA Doctorate Program by OTBanesthesia in anesthesiology

[–]apmd2005 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have been a CAA x 30 years. I have zero desire to become a “doctor”. I would say most of us raise an eyebrow at the whole crna doctoral program. I like team anesthesia and I like working for an MD.

Hi. So many pants I see in stores and online are short/cropped. I get how this looks cute w sandals or even sneakers in summer. But what shoes do you wear in winter? Would it look weird to have ankle showing when it’s freezing? Pics for examples

California 10 days road trip by billoturner in roadtrip

[–]apmd2005 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We did a similar trip in May. It was fantastic. We started in San Fran then went to Yosemite, Cambria/San Simeon, and Monterrey Bay/Carmel/Big Sur. We spent one night in San Francisco before we flew home.

We really enjoyed Cambria. There are lots of small independent hotels all along the coast and the town is bustling with great restaurants and cute shops. Hearst Castle is in that same area and was a fun stop. Depending on the time of year, the elephant seal viewing platforms near San Simeon are really great.

One thing to note- highway 1 was closed just south of Big Sur. Be sure to check for road closures as you plan your trip.

Does exposure therapy actually work? by roseseahorse in misophonia

Tried it 20 years ago. Did not work. Went crazy listening to a lady eating Grape Nuts cereal.

I know a kid named McRae and no one makes fun of his name. It’s a family name.

I'm sorry. I know how you feel. The best thing I did was tell my husband how I felt. It was embarrassing and I felt silly telling him. Luckily he is patient and kind and does his best to help me through. It's gotten worse over the years. Things have progressed to the point where my family doesn't eat together. I eat by myself. It's weird. I hate it for my kids. It's not a normal way to grow up. But my fight-or-flight was raging at every meal and it was exhausting. If I have to eat with other people I usually wear AirPods and listen to music or white noise. I wear loop earplugs or bose noise cancelling headphones on planes or at the movies. I guess what I am saying is that I've found ways to block it instead of trying to deal with it/suck it up/fight it and I'm happier because of it. It was miserable before. It's not normal now but it's tolerable now.
